Hanukkah Menorah Craft
Hanukkah is often called the Festival of Light and the main symbol for the holiday is the Menorah. There is much tradition
that goes into the lighting of the Menorah and now your children will have the chance to make one of their very own with our
Hanukkah Menorah craft. This craft uses some materials that may be new to your kids which helps keep the project fun and interesting.

How to make your Hanukkah Menorah Craft:
